Demodulating the 14.2 Hz Stardust carrier: software update and benchmark results.

The original stardust.c v1.0 dropped sync whenever there was a scratch or surface pop on the record.
Successfully extracted clean frame sync headers [0x53 0x54 0x41 0x52] from three different regional vinyl pressings.

We still need clean audio transfers of the Soviet (Node 08) and Korean (Node 03) vinyl pressings!

Compiled cleanly under gcc -O2 on my Slackware box. The adaptive Costas loop is rock solid even on my scratched US copy.
